San Candido — Val Pusteria Gateway

Trentino-Alto Adige

San Candido sits at the very top of the Val Pusteria, its onion-domed church and neat wooden-balconied houses giving it a classic alpine postcard look, right at the historic crossing point into Austria's East Tyrol. The village belvedere gives views up toward the Sesto Dolomites just beyond.
